Here's what I use to get the Docker daemon logs handled by logrotate

  $ cat /etc/logrotate.d/docker
  /var/log/docker.log {
    compress
    copytruncate
    delaycompress
  }

Note that this runs the risk of losing a smallish window of log messages
when rotating, IIRC.

Under systemd the Docker daemon logs to the journal which is rotated
automatically.

Hope this helps,
